Running Windows 95 game

If you are having a problem running a Windows 95 game on Vista Home Premium...do you have an option other than buy another version of Vista that offers Virtual PC? ( or uninstal Vista and load XP ). Yes...I tried to run in "Windows 95" compatability mode. Thanks!!!

I tried cpukiller to slow down cpu. Great program! Easy to use. But, it did not work. The picture freezes in BOCG by LGT.
